HOURGLASS

A modern take on the classic sand timer—a tall and slender frameless figure-eight with flat top and bottom. Love the graphic black sand, a perfect complement to a modern color story. Standing 13.5” high, it makes a fine gift or enjoyable accessory for bookshelf, cocktail table, or desk. Note that as a measurement of the passing of time, however, you’ll want to stick with your clock or cell phone; our testing showed each turn lasted about 5 minutes and 12 seconds.
